The aim of this study was to reveal the relationships between nutritional parameters and pulmonary functions in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in both sexes. Spirometric, laboratory, and demographic data of 450 consecutive patients were analysed retrospectively. Males had significantly greater pack-years of smoking, more severe airway obstruction, and lower body mass index (BMI). In non-smokers, BMI was significantly lower in men independent of age and pulmonary functions. Creatine kinase levels showed no correlation with any pulmonary function parameters. Serum albumin levels correlated better than BMI with pulmonary functions. In conclusion, females with COPD were maintained weight better than men.
本研究旨在揭示男女慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者营养参数与肺功能之间的关系。回顾性分析了 450 例连续患者的肺功能、实验室和人口统计学数据。男性的吸烟包年数明显更高,气道阻塞更严重,体重指数(BMI)更低。在不吸烟者中,男性的 BMI 明显低于女性,且与年龄和肺功能无关。肌酸激酶水平与任何肺功能参数均无相关性。血清白蛋白水平与肺功能的相关性优于 BMI。总之,COPD 女性比男性更能保持体重。
